Model Inference Observability: Measuring Agent Decision Quality
Model inference observability encompasses semantic logging, latency measurement, and token-efficiency tracking for AI agents in production environments. Beyond infrastructure metrics like GPU utilization and request latency, decision quality measurement requires evaluation frameworks assessing hallucination rates, reasoning chain validity, and business outcome correlation. Organizations implementing comprehensive observability for large language model agents report 23-40% improvements in…
